Dear Fellow Colonials –

Colonials Weekend is nearly here, October 20 – 22, and we look forward to welcoming our alumni back to campus. Colonials Weekend is GW's annual celebration for the entire community, and alumni will be attending several events held in their honor. The weekend is packed with fun. You won't want to miss the annual Kick-off Party at Alumni House on Friday night, an open conversation with President Stephen Joel Trachtenberg on Saturday morning, the “Classes Without Quizzes” lecture series, family fun at Octoberfest, the 4th Annual Golf Scramble, and the Deans’ Breakfasts.
